Sunday Weighers... or is it only me?

Hello all, sorry I've been a bit absent lately, I've been finding it hard to follow the plan :(

In total over Christmas and new year I gained 5lbs. I'm not proud of this number, however I AM back on plan now and feeling more positive about following it to the letter!
I'm also planning to increase my exercise too, I find watching the biggest loser a real motivation so have been watching a few episodes of the american one (season 12) online to give me a bit of a kick up the back side!!!

I'm still out of work which really sucks, and as you can imagine really really isn't helping my battle with depression. I'm trying my best to keep my chin up though, and thankfully the antidepressants the doc gave me seem to be working quite well which I'm very pleased about. I've been on a few different types over the last few years and none of them seemed to really work for me, but these ones are agreeing with my system and thankfully I haven't had many bad side effects from them either!

So! I am going to update my ticker in a minute, but I am 100% determined to report a loss (Hopefully a good one) next week!

Take care all

xXx

Hi Elb..

Don't worry about the gain, everyone does it during the Xmas period.. The most important thing is that you are now back on track so that 5lbs will be off in no time I'm sure of it!

Sorry to hear you are still out of job though :(

Fruitful was 28g plus a ryvita, so was Shreddies

So no more 42 gram cereals - that's a bit pants - but good the others are 30g. Good news about cheese too!!

Have they changed the nuts , meats & fish too?

I need that book lol!!!

Maybe the changes will help the weight loss lol.

Just a quick note - my scales played up today - it had me a stone lighter - I loved my scales for that moment . Then reality set in as the battery is dying and the back compartment keeps falling off!!!

Hi folks, can I join you lovely Sunday weighers please? Call is masochistic, but despite the NYE hangover, I restarted the plan on New Year's Day, so Sunday weigh in it is! Doing pretty good so far, I think - looking forward to sharing ups and downs of weigh ins with you all on Sundays.
 
Hey Realslimlady, welcome to the gang :D

We're a friendly, supportive chatty bunch here, so just get stuck in and get posting.

Good luck with Sundays weigh-in
 
Thanks for the warm welcome! Much appreciated! I've done SW before in the past, but this is the first time I have been on Minimins - I love it so far. I always thought that the slimming world website suffered from not having some form of community/forum. I'm doing this at home this time, so it will be great to be able share progress with you guys.
 
It is a great forum, full of people who understand how hard it is to diet sometimes. They can pick you up, dust you off and send you on your merry way when things get tough, as well as celebrating all the achievements.

I have my weigh-in tomorrow - I'm not even an official Sunday weigher, I just gate crashed one day and set up camp in here :cool:
 
I'm back! Still not on a Sunday but wanted to say hi, and a massive massive well done! x

I used to live in Edinburgh, and had a bar job there! Good times! Now live in NW England! How are you liking Ed? Must be cold and windy there at the moment, but it's an amazing city. Many happy memories of Hogmanay on Carlton Hill!

Are you both cold?

I am down south - cant quite believe how mild it is - I'm pleased though as I don't like the cold white stuff.
